This presentation discusses what are the open educational resources (OER), the three key attributes of an OER which are relevance, openess and access. It highlights the reasons for the need for an OER based course material and stages of the OER-based course development. To identify relevant OER for reuse, a number of reputable and peer-reviewed OER repositories should be identified after discussion among Course Development Team. Search mechanisms to locate relevant OER material are suggested. D-index and OERScout were proposed to solve the problem of effectively trawling and locating OER for teaching and learning needs.
